If you are like most fitness dreamers we tend to forget to celebrate our achievements. As we stare down another year ending, this is a perfect time to take a second and pat yourself on the back for everything you’ve done.
The last few months I’ve been pretty down on myself. My own fitness dream has taken a back seat recently and there have been several times when I have felt like I haven’t done anything.
